Learn About Children

Children face many challenges worldwide, but there have been significant positive developments in recent years that offer hope for a brighter future. According to UNICEF, the global under-five mortality rate has declined by more than half since 1990, with more children than ever before surviving and thriving into adulthood. There has also been progress in improving access to education, with the number of out-of-school children declining from 124 million in 2000 to 258 million in 2018. Additionally, there has been a growing recognition of the importance of protecting children's rights, with many countries implementing laws and policies to prevent child labor, protect children from violence and abuse, and ensure that children have access to basic health care and nutrition. These positive trends indicate that progress is being made in creating a safer and more supportive environment for children worldwide, and that there is hope for a future where all children can grow up healthy, happy, and empowered to reach their full potential.

Camp Tuku

Camp Tuku

At Camp Tuku, our mission is to provide a mindfulness approach to the camp experience for kids; a program designed to integrate the mind, body, and heart, giving kids skills early in life to help them nurture inner resilience. With a focus on developing mindfulness skills, our unique summer camp experience offers a great opportunity for kids to learn and practice simple, fun tools for the development of self-awareness, as well as practices that will enable them to respond more effectively to the inevitable stress of every-day life. At Camp Tuku, we aim to nurture the mind, body, and heart in the following ways: MIND Daily mindfulness and meditation exercises encourage campers to cultivate self-awareness and open their minds to an innate capacity for peace and emotional stability. By unplugging from the mental barrage of digital media, and actively blending traditional camp activities with mindfulness exercises, kids strengthen their connection to not only nature’s resources but also the innate resources of their own minds. BODY Fun and engaging activities such as hiking, cooking, challenge courses, rock climbing, yoga, swimming, gardening, and music will provide campers with multiple daily opportunities to grow their self-confidence as they challenge themselves both physically and mentally. All meals will be healthy AND yummy, and campers will participate in the seed-to-table experience of growing food in an organic garden and interacting with farm life. HEART We offer a social-emotional learning curriculum aimed at building resilience. This curriculum is delivered through team-building games and activities. Children will learn how to better express their emotions, such as appreciation and compassion for themselves and others. They will practice how to communicate effectively and develop creative solutions in a fun and collaborative environment. As children leave Camp Tuku, they will return to their daily lives with more confidence and an assortment of practical tools that will help them lead happy, healthy lives for years to come. They will be empowered to make conscious and deliberate real-time choices that reflect their unique brilliance. The laughter and learning experienced at Camp Tuku will blossom into friendships that kids will want to continue nurturing long after they’ve said goodbye!
